Not like my old Focus then which used to fall off just by looking at it.

I've Only had a quick squirt up around the M'way but even just driving down to the junction it feels more eager and responsive the increased torque shows in much better indicated mpg when climbing hills in 6th ... I'll have a better idea after tomorrow as I have to drive across derbyshire and back .... perhaps the snake pass on the way back though the speed limit has sort of ruined it now...

Sounds good mate. A few people seem to be having positive experiences with these devices. Let us know how it effects your mpg
